There are many companies/products in the market that claim to have an automated solution, but these fall short in the aspect of quality and ability to handle complex books. What are some of the benefits Silk Evolve offers over other PDF-to-EPUB conversion tools? The design theme of Silk Evolve is to automate as much as possible and to keep the operator focused only on those issues where his judgment is required, which in turn assures better quality and output.

How many times have you opened an ebook and noticed awkward hyphenations or other conversion errors?
